Iberolam Timber&Technology

What Iberolam Timber&Technology does

Iberolam Timber & Technology S.L. is a Spanish private company founded in 2023 in Granada as a spin-off from the University of Granada, focused on industrialised timber construction for the Andalusian and southern Spanish market. The company designs, engineers, fabricates, and assembles structural timber systems including CLT (cross-laminated timber) panels, MCLam glulam beams in poplar, pine, and combined configurations, light-frame and heavy-frame timber systems, traditional roof solutions, and its proprietary MCLamBS mixed wood-concrete prefabricated floor system. Manufacturing is enabled by Cadwork CAD-CAM with CNC machining and BIM-based coordination (IFC, Bimteam), with two granted utility model patents protecting the MCLam mixed glulam beams and the Pi-type MCLamBS floor system developed under the European LIFE Wood for Future project.

The company operates a dual business model combining technical engineering services (structural calculation, BIM modelling, CNC manufacturing coordination, on-site assembly, non-destructive inspection, and carbon-fibre reinforcement of existing timber structures) with the upcoming sale of prefabricated timber structural products from a new 6,000 m² industrial complex under construction in Valderrubio, Granada, beginning March 2026. Customer segments span architectural studios and prescribers, property developers and promoters, and public administrations (including heritage rehabilitation work such as the Iglesia de Santo Domingo de Silos roof structure), with construction companies and carpentry firms as a secondary segment. Iberolam also runs the Iberolam Timber Academy, a six-module professional training programme priced at €100–€280 per module, which both generates ancillary revenue and builds an ecosystem of professionals trained in its methods and Cadwork tooling.

The company is privately held, funded by a €1,000,000 EU FEDER 2021-2027 grant (June 2025) and a late-2025 capital increase to €1,200,000 that onboarded four strategic investors from the promotion and construction sector (Pérez Lázaro, Tecnosgra, Rehabitec, Promociones Bembézar), and is closely tied to the forest owner associations MARJAL and FORET and the University of Granada's UIMA timber research unit for ongoing R&D, raw material supply, and technical talent.
